Patriot. GREAT FIRE AT PORT GIB- SON. (MI.) Accounts were received at New Or Iras on the 3d inst. staling that Port Gibson, the-seat of justice in Claiborne county, Mississippi, had been visited by a dreadful conflagration. It broke out u the 1st inst. The cause or first origin of the fire is rjot mentioned, or whether it occurred at oight or in the day time. The extent of its ravages was very great lor a country village perhaps unequalled. The court house, the jail, the bank, the ' principal "Tav erns, the stores, and two-thirds of the whole town were consumed. Port Uibson U a .flourishing inland village, siituated on the Bayou Pierre, about 8 miles from the Grand Gulf, on the Mississippi.

The Whigs charge Sir Robert Peel question, and also of making a demand the dismissal of the ladies in question, and also of making a demand altogeth er unjustified by precedent. To this, they reply that the present is an extra, oidmary case. That heretofore) the household of . tho Queen have never been effect by politicsl changes of the Ministry, becauae the Queen was not the aoyereigQi but such ia not the cast now, and it would be an act or rash imprudence, not to say ma Jness, for them to undertake the conduct of the public affairs, while the most confiden- tiaf - friends and Ittendan-s of - the Queen a young, and however ingen- uuus, anu inexperienceu yueen were lit tuiMka Ml .I.H1,hla. .f the wives, sisters and daughters of the very Ministry whom they bad uisplac- . .. .... ... f-..- . , . -.,, Although the demand made by Mr. Peel and his asociates, seems at first tight to bear hard upon the young. sov ereign, and will enable the Whigs to appeal to the sympathies arid good feelings of the British nation, yet up on a cobTWuuTspisstoM the whole mattei, it seems to us that the. course ihey took was the only safe one for themselves, and which would have enabled them, to make a fair trial of their ability to conduct the govern ment.
